Cycling day trip from Arbon to Kreuzlingen

Hop on your bike in the charming town of Arbon, nestled on the southern shore of Lake Constance. Arbon offers a picturesque start with its lakeside views and a touch of history thanks to its medieval old town and pretty waterfront.

Your journey to Kreuzlingen spans about 29 kilometers, making for a leisurely ride with a gentle ascent of just over 105 meters. It’s perfect for a relaxed day out, especially since nearly 90% of the route keeps you on quiet roads and dedicated cycleways.

As you pedal along, soak up the serene countryside and perhaps stop for a picnic or a break by the lake — you’re never far from its shimmering waters. The max elevation reaches 425 meters, offering brief elevated perspectives of the sprawling vistas.

Arriving in Kreuzlingen, you’ll find another lakeside gem. As the largest Swiss city on Lake Constance, Kreuzlingen is known for its lovely promenades and parks.
